Ultrasonic Assisted Liposuction (UAL) is used in conjunction with tumescent liposuction techniques. UAL converts ultrasonic energy into heat, causing the fat cells to literally melt, after which, the remains are suctioned out with a traditional cannula. With UAL, there is minimal blood loss, less bruising, and better retraction of tissue.
Ultrasonic Liposuction may be recommend by Dr. Patronella to be used in conjunction with traditional
liposuction for a safer procedure.
Ask Dr. Patronella is UAL if right for you.
